The deepest heartaches can become heartstrings to God's joy, peace, and love.

... Even the worst heartaches can become heartstrings to God's hope, comfort, encouragement, joy, peace and love...Welcome! As a fan of the cartoon character Maxine, I enjoy her witty remarks. But when I read my blogs & other writing to her, she's not very responsive- even when I'm wearing my bunny slippers like hers! She just doesn't get it!Although she's funnier than I am, I do pray that this site will bring encouragement to your day! I'd love to hear from you! Unlike Maxine, you can leave me a message via the Comments. Shalom, Connie ......................................................................................

Life-Savors

I have Brownies in the oven and my bubble bath is running so this will...ooh no, I'm multitasking!

The Brownies do smell good; and my achy bones are just waiting to slip under those bubbles... aaah. Comfort time, no multitasking just de-stressing and relaxing.I need an idea for a writing project so I am going to think about that while I get into the tub. (After the Brownies are out of the oven.) In that bubbly bliss, while my muscles, tendons and ligaments begin to relax andI drift between alertness and dosing silence reigns. That is when, sometimes, I hear God whisper to me.

Brownies are out... yum, can you smell them? I didn't put nuts in just in case you're allergic to them... Not yet, they have to cool.... Gonna savor that rich chocolate flavor... No snitching while I'm soaking. Ummmmmm, they do smell good!No whispers, but as I eat this, warm from the oven, Brownie I am thankful for the little lifesavors that bring comfort in my life:my baby granddaughter's smile and little noisesthe sun setting over the mountains and leaving a rosy trail across the skypraying with my grandson at bedtime as he lists everyone he knows to be blessedmusic written in the 1600's that touches my hearta good book for cuddling under the afghan on a cool daythe smell of vanilla and cinnimon candlesYou add your lifesavors...Be in an attitude of thanksgiving with me as we bring this week to a close.Shalom, ConnieSaturday prayers focus on those seeking salvation and those searching for meaning in life.
